Hydrazine → HCID 178507294, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-(4-(Benzyloxy)-2-fluorophenyl)-3-oxopropanenitrile (1.7 g, 6.3 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (21 mL), and then hydrazine (0.22 mL, 6.9 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for about one hour, and the progress of the reaction was followed by thin-layer chromatography. If no progress had been made, the temperature was gradually increased until the reaction began proceeding. As soon as the reaction appeared complete by thin-layer chromatography, the crude material was concentrated in vacuo and purified by chromatography to provide the title compound 97% yield.
